Break up the Sixers

Maybe it’s time to start taking the Sixers seriously.


Sure, they were 15-6 going into last night’s game. But the critics could not resist pointing out that they had not exactly been playing the cream of the NBA crop.


Not anymore.


Last night the team with the best record in the NBA paid a visit to the Wells Fargo Center.


And were summarily sent on their way after being Bull-dozed by this Sixers juggernaut.


The Sixers took a 5-point lead at the half and blew the game open with a stupendous third period in winning going away, 98-82.

It does not get any easier from here. Next up? LeBron James and the Miami Heat on Friday night.
